A member asked:
Only experiencing soreness, like muscle/tendon sorensss vs joint starting at the top of my left hip. when i do a side bend to stretch, feels like an overworked muscle/tendon. started atorvastatin 20 mg about a month ago, any correlation? 5 days now

May be not: As the soreness and fatigue is in one area only, not generalized, as it would be a side effect of statins, however, you may want to hold / reduce the dose till better, see your doctor if no improvement, wish you wellness
